Labour was in no danger of losing its large majority in this year's elections, but has seen its number shrink slightly to 49.
They lost seats in Knottingley to the Liberal Democrats, who saw a councillor elected to the authority for the first time since 2011, and to independent candidates in Hemsworth and Airedale and Ferry Fryston.
